I would def have to say if you're saying its cranking at normal speeds but not firing, check spark, if there's spark....check fuel components, I was cranking the gst for hrs trying to get it to start after a dissassembly, come to find out, the fuel pump wasn't plugged backed in under the seat cranked right up, but def check to make sure you're getting fuel and spark.

ok so checked with stupid spark checker from advanced and didnt see any spark... so it must be the coil. went to napa cuz advanced didnt have it and napa wanted to charge me $130 of a coil!!!!!!!!! out of their fucking minds!!!!
and now im fucked. but it also might be the plug that goes into the coil....

ok found that it is making spark!
the only other thing i dis connected was the TPS and IAC on the throttle body. do u think when i was gringind away at the TB i could have damaged one of the sencors? would the TPS or IAC not working keep it from starting?

sometimes you'll end up bumping something loose and not realizing it. I do it all the time.

You workin on the eclipse? or I saw Neon? Either way, i dont think you can mess up either as the tps doesnt go into the tb, just sits on the throttle piece, and the iac, well it prolly sits too deep into the tb to even touch it, my guess is try ur fuel stuff, injector wires, fuel filter, fp, connectionsss.
